Nurture Your Creativity!
We are all born with creativity in some shape or form. Our society places value on taking care of our bodies, and souls but what about our forms of expression? It is time to honor your creativity by letting it out, giving it value and allowing it to flourish. Being creative and being able to express your inner most creative energy is so important to our well being. Do something to honor the artist within! We hope that it’s taking pottery but if not, find something that will allow your creativity and imagination to flourish!
Why Pottery?
People often ask us why pottery? While my first response used to be”why not”, I soon realized that they asked that question because the answer was not as apparent to them as it was to me. My current response is because “Pottery is good for the soul, the body and the spirit!” While my answer may sound a bit corny, I stand by it and know it to be true.
Pottery is good for the soul because there is an amazing sense of accomplishment when your piece comes out of the kiln, it is like a present each time we unload. Making bigger pieces, creating refined shapes or working on a new technique is exciting and rewarding. Our friendly staff and students provide an open and supportive environment in which to work. At Pottery Alley we create friendships as well as pots.
Stress reduction! Who could not use less stress in their lives? Working in clay is like playing in the mud as a child, your senses take over and the worries and anxieties of life take a back seat to the feel of clay in your hands. The soothing sounds of the wheel, the calming feel of the clay and the friendly chatter of the students will soon make you forget that you have any worries. Transport yourself to a stress free zone in one of our classes.
We focus on our bodies, our relationships, our children but what about our spirit? When is the last time you worried about your creative side or nurtured your imagination? Taking care of our creative instincts is as important as taking care of our body yet it is often neglected. Pottery classes can help to free your imagination and to unlock your creativity, it is good for the soul!
